Yes, we had both IBM and Netapp out as well. I'm not sure what the point was... We do have some IBM SAN equipment on site, I suppose if we had gone with the IBM variant we could have consolidated support. > > sometimes it's more than just the raw storage...

If I understand correctly, that would be sort of a poor man's replication? So you would result with a physical copy on server2 of all of the data on server1? What would you do when server1 crashed and died? One of the benefits of a real cluster would be the automatic failover, and fail back when the server recovered. -- Paul B.
